1.27

SEAT BELTS (5/5)

The following information applies to the vehicle’s front and rear seat belts.

- No modification may be made to the component parts of the originally fitted restraint system: seat belts, seats and

their mountings. For special operations (e.g. fitting child seats), contact an authorised dealer.

- Do not use devices which allow any slack in the belts (e.g. clothes pegs, clips, etc.): a seat belt which is worn too

loosely may cause injury in the event of an accident.

Never wear the shoulder strap under your arm or behind your back.

–

Never use the same belt for more than one person and never hold a baby or child on your lap with your seat belt around

them.

- The belt should never be twisted.

–

Following an accident, have the seat belts checked and replaced if necessary. Always replace your seat belts as soon as

they show any signs of wear.

When positioning the rear bench seat, make sure that the seat belts and buckles are correctly positioned so that they can

be used properly.

Make sure that the buckle is inserted into the appropriate catch.

–

Ensure that no objects are placed in the area around the seat belt catch as they could prevent it from being properly se-

cured.

Make sure the seat belt catch is properly positioned (it should not be hidden away, crushed or flattened by people or ob-

jects).

METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (6/6)

All of the warnings below are given so that the airbag is not obstructed in any way when it is inflated and also to prevent

the risk of serious injuries caused by items which may be dislodged when it inflates.

Warnings concerning the driver’s airbag

- Do not modify the steering wheel or the steering wheel boss.

- Do not cover the steering wheel boss under any circumstances.

- Do not attach any objects (badge, logo, clock, telephone holder, etc.) to the steering wheel boss.

- The steering wheel must not be removed (except by qualified personnel from our Network).

- When driving, do not sit too close to the steering wheel. Sit with your arms slightly bent (see the information on “Adjusting

your driving position” in Section 1). This will allow sufficient space for the air bag to deploy correctly and be fully effective.

Warnings concerning the passenger airbag

- Do not attach or glue any objects (badge, logo, clock, telephone holder, etc.) to the dashboard on or near the airbag.

- Do not place anything between the dashboard and the passenger (pet, umbrella, walking stick, parcels, etc.).

- The passenger must not put his or her feet on the dashboard or seat as there is a risk that serious injuries may occur. In

general, parts of the body should be kept away from the dashboard (knees, hands, head, etc.).

- The devices in addition to the front passenger seat belt should be reactivated as soon as a child seat is removed, to ensure

the protection of the passenger in the event of an impact.

A REAR-FACING CHILD SEAT MUST NOT BE FITTED TO THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT UNLESS

THE ADDITIONAL RESTRAINT SYSTEMS, IE. THE PASSENGER AIR BAG, ARE DEACTIVATED.

(refer to the information on “Child safety: deactivating/activating the front passenger airbag” in Section 1)

1.34

METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE REAR SIDE SEAT BELTS

Above a certain severity of impact, this

mechanism is used to limit the force of

the belt against the body so that it is at

an acceptable level.

- No operation whatsoever

tical.

- Only qualified personnel from

bags; otherwise the system may

trigger accidentally and cause

injury.

1.35

SIDE PROTECTION DEVICES

Side Airbags

An airbag can be fitted to each front

seat and the rear side seats, which are

deployed on the side of the seat (door

side) to protect the occupants in the

case of a severe side impact.

Curtain Airbags

These are airbag fitted along the sides

of the vehicle in the ceiling which trigger

along the front and rear door side win-

dows to protect the passengers in case

of a severe side impact.

Warning relating to the side airbag

- Fitting seat covers: seats equipped with an airbag require covers spe-

cifically designed for your vehicle. Contact an approved Dealer to find out

if these covers are available. The use of any covers other than those de-

signed for your vehicle (and including those designed for another vehicle) may

affect the operation of the airbags and reduce your protection.

Do not place any accessories, objects or even pets between the seatback, the

door and the internal fittings. Do not cover the seatback with any items such as

clothes or accessories. This may prevent the air bag from operating correctly

or cause injury when the airbag is deployed.

No work or modification whatsoever may be carried out on the seat or internal
